LAHORE: The Lahore Electric Supply Company has exempted 48 11kV feeders from loadshedding after considering the areas getting electricity from them as most important and sensitive.

A majority of such feeders are supposed to supply electricity to hospitals. Similarly some seem to be exempted due to nature and importance of activities in various areas. These include GOR, Wapda House, Wapda Colony, Lesco headquarters and high court.

“Though the above feeders fall under loss category-1, we need to provide electricity to the areas connected with them uninterruptedly due to activities of sensitive nature,” a Lesco official told Dawn on Wednesday.

“However, we cannot avoid any power disruption at these feeders/areas if happened due to technical fault in grid/distribution system,” he added.
